heck I didn't find J.B. Hifi any good at all, they did the worst job on amplifier install I've ever seen. They made every promise and did absolutely shit. If you do get what you want you will have wasted your time because they'll keep telling you to come back later even before they start and have you booked in. Did it to me threee times before they started and I gave up after I saw their shitty install and decided to go elsewhere and pay again to get it installed right. Their guarantee is guarantee to waste your time!

didn't know allan was still around. he does decent work. ( used to work with him in sydney years ago before he did his own thing.)

also make sure they have a security licence.

Chris: Yeah, he is the head installer in NSW for Brant. However, as Allan himself would admit, its far better to approach him through his own business rather than Brant (that's if you want a Brant installed: he does other installs too) as Brant push him to do jobs quickly, while he can take the time to do a better install if you do it privately through him.

He took a good 3-odd hours installing the alarm in my system (without a break: I was watching him). I was very impressed with his attention to detail and his upfront manner.

By the way Edge I am part owner in the business that does all the installs for J.B Hifi. If you had a problem I would of heard of it. I dont recall any problems like that and the first thing that comes to my mind is that you say that you gave up and went elsewhere and then you say that you had to pay again to get it installed right. I thought we didnt install it in the first place so how did you get it installed right? Anyway if this bullshit story is somewhat true I would be more than happy to refund your money to the last cent. Bring your receipt and prove to me what you have said. Dont go making comments that arent true and false. I am more than happy to refund any money that you have spent. Also let me know which workshop/shop you had the work done at and approximate date. Maybe it was a while ago before I took over as their were other installers. I am interested to know.

2hypo,

you ar based in newcastle correct?

if so then you also do the work for repco on a national basis.

( NIS I think you are.)

LW.

I watched him do a antitheft on 20min flat several years back ( this was in his Precison Installations days.)

Well apart from 2Hypo being unbiased, he sure is a gentleman.

So it wasn't just a private message I replied to.

Anyhow, I would like to thank JB Hi Fi for contacting me and offering to go the extra mile to fix things up to my (the customer) satisfaction.

Since you also posted publicy, I will simply say that what I posted was genuine personal experience as a balance to what turns out was your free advertising statement.

(of course they would look after you, you own them).

I am actually based in the Sydney. I currently run workshops in the following locations Parramatta, Leichardt, Bondi Junction and Bankstown. I am part owner as my brother is the other partner and he is more involved than myself. I control the books the out goings, wages, invoices etc....I run 3 businesses at the moment and never have a dull moment.

Thanks for your comments Edge. Also thanks for your PM. Customer satisfaction is our guarantee. As my PM states if there is anything I could do to help you please let me know.

Cheers

Hey Guys,

I got a system installed yesterday & I would highly recommend the guys who did it to ANYONE...The system is awesome, the customer service couldn't have been any nicer & this guy went out of his way to do the best job...

I was also involved every step of the way & allowed to ask any stoopid question I could think of (which was alot!!!)...I even ended up learning heaps about the whole process surprisingly enough...

If you're interested just PM me & I'll pass on the details...

Good luck

Hey,

For those looking for a custom-audio installer/supplier I just wanted to let you know I have found an awesome one...

I have just had a system installed in a week & I couldn't be happier with the results...Now I'm ready to 'doof' with the best of y'all...

You couldn't get better customer service & professionalism, you're involved in everything & they don't mind you butting in & asking stoopid questions (which I am really good at!!)...

If anyone is looking for a quality sound system PM & I'll pass on the details...

P.S. I have no ties to this guy I was just overly impressed with his work & thought I'd share it with y'all...

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
